I really enjoyed one of these stories which I got to read on the plane’s magazine.

This was probably one of the craziest business trips I have ever been in. On our way back, we had a lot of time to kill (see the end of this post) so we came up with the following stats:
3 days
3 girls
5 airports (6 if you count LAX)
4 airplanes
1 train
5 Lincoln Town Cars
2 cabs
2 hotel shuttles
2 hotels
2 hotel breakfasts
2 lunch meetings
2 in-room movies
12 hours to fly from Boston to San Francisco

Yep, it took us 12 hours to get from Logan to SFO. We left Boston at 1:30 PM Pacific Time. We connected in Denver at 7:30 PM PST. We were supposed to arrive in SF at 9:30 PM PST. At around 9:00 PM, the pilot informed us that we were being diverted to LA because of strong winds and a terrible storm. We landed in LAX at 10:30 PST. They kept us I the plane the whole time. We had only been served a half a sandwich in the flight from Boston to Denver and a small bag of party mix in the flight from Denver to SF. The flight was packed. We were starving, tired, and cranky. After 3 hours of being stuck in the plane, we took off from LA at 1:00 AM. We landed in SF right before 2:00 AM. I was home at 3:00 AM. I was not happy.

Stumble it!
